🔺SETUP
▪️Set yourself far enough from the band so when you reach back your arms are straight and the band does not have slack.
.
▪️Hit a hollow position (can scale to tuck version) & pull the band with straight arms down to your hips
.
🔺KEY POINTS
▪️do not fall out of your hollow (i.e.: don’t let shoulders drop every time you bring band back behind you). Go to a scaled version if you get tired
.
▪️Make sure you pull w. straight arms

▪️If you need more resistance - move farther away from band
